Louis Massaro started a moving company at 19 with no experience. His best mover taught him the fundamentals: how to fold pads, load a truck, pad furniture. Once one person masters these basics, you can teach the whole crew.
When I started my moving company, I was a 19-year-old kid. I had no idea what I was doing. I didn't know how to move furniture. I didn't work for a moving company before that. And to try to train my guys was intimidating. And finally I was like, you know what? I just need to bite the bullet here and go to my best mover and say, listen, I need you to show me the ropes. I need you to show me what to do. And he kind of showed me everything, kind of took me under his wing, like got to work for me, took me under his wing and said, here's how, let's start. Here's how pads are folded. Here's how we load load a truck and build tiers in the truck. Here's how we pad a dresser, and here's how we pad a chair. And I learned the basics of how to move. That component can be taught easily once one person in your company knows how to do that. So whether that's you, or whether you've got a mover that is a great mover that can train that to other people, that could be taught.
